I'm not at all an expert on mines, but shouldn't it be possible to just carry the mines elsewhere? I guess it would still take balls of steel...

That was my thought, as well as how close the camera person was standing.

Maybe they had one these ridiculous Canon 1200mm f8 $20k camera lenses.

Nah. Perspective wasn't squashed nearly enough and he was able to pan way too much.

I know, I'm unfun.

It was a joke. Not a good joke. But still...

I for one always wanted to low-key have the big Sigma 200-500/2.8 lens. I don't really have any use for it, but it would still be cool to have

Wow. If that had happened here, a team of fifty people would have planned this for two weeks and then they'd have come up with some million dollar robot that would remove the things one by one. The removal would have cost at least a million $.

Not even bothering to have only one person do it, while everybody else keeps away, means that regardless of how dangerous it looks, it's not actually dangerous. At least, as far as those people know.
